3/18/23

Gilroy is a player who continually shows out well in front of our staff in event. Gilroy, a 6-foot-2, 205 pound backstop who can hit, put on a display in batting practice. He hits with a simple, handsy swing that creates loads of bat speed, and with the present strength in his hands, the ball was jumping off the bat at the tune of exit velocities in the upper 90’s (97 MPH max exit velocity, good for fifth at the event). Behind the plate, Gilroy turns the ball around quickly on steal attempts and delivered a pop time of 1.98 seconds with accuracy. Gilroy remains uncommitted but has the toolset and skills to help a program at the next level. 

7/12/22

Positional Profile: C/1B
Body: 6-1, 210-pounds. Thicker/physical
Hits: RHH. Tall set up short hand trigger, short fall forward to hitting position flat path short, impacts baseball to all fields, strong
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 86.4 MPH. 370' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-72 mph. Some carry, H3Q slot,
Defense: 2.10-2.18 pop times. Some reach with a longer right foot, some accuracy,
Run: 7.70 runner in the 60.

7/12/22

Gilroy presents a solid 6-foot-1, 210-frame from his position behind the dish. Gilroy continued to show well offensively on Tuesday, as we saw at the Madison Preseason ID in the spring, as he had one of the top exit velocities during his BP session in the 2024 class, at 95 mph, and he’s one of the few players in the state, regardless of class, who’s showcased triple-digit exit speeds in previous showcase performances. Gilroy flashed a quick bat as well, as he averaged 72.2 mph barrel speed, traced by the Blast device. Gilroy has frequently shown the ability to reach that bat strength in-game, too, so it wasn’t a surprise to see him send a no-doubt home run to the deepest part of Fenway during live gameplay later in the day.

6/30/22

Gilroy is an imposing bat for this Rays MKE squad. Standing at a thick 6-foot-1, 210-pounds Gilroy’s power potential is real and he showed it off in game, smacking a ground rule double to the deepest part of the field. Earlier this year, Gilroy was a stand-out performer from our Madison Preseason ID event and has continued to impress each time he is in front of our staff.

3/13/22

Gilroy is a 6-foot-1, 210-pound sophomore with a strong, durable frame. In the box, Gilroy stands tall and narrow with a high handset, making aggressive, connected rotation after firmly planting into his lead leg, and delivering a heavy barrel at impact. Gilroy generated an elite 102.7 mph exit speed from 77 mph barrel speed, and he showcased strongly in the catching session with a 2.03 pop and 76 mph arm. Gilroy’s elite bat strength and progression as a defender have him trending up in the class.
